Chapter 78



The group arrived safely at the Fifth Legion. After thanking Assistant Xiao Ji, He Mo returned to the medical team's dormitory and placed the still-sleeping little golden lion on the bed. He asked with some concern, "How did the little guy sleep for so long?"

Hei Yao fluttered down from He Mo's shoulder, his two claws firmly planted on the little golden lion's forehead. He held his head high and said proudly, "It's because this beast is too weak. It can evolve by absorbing just a little bit of my energy. Xiao Mo, how could you contract such a weak beast? None of the beasts here are as beautiful and powerful as me, Hei Yao."

"Alright." He Mo laughed. This guy was still so petty. "The little golden lion was just born not long ago. You are not allowed to bully it when it wakes up. Do you understand?"

"Tsk. I won't bully it when it's so weak." Hei Yao rolled his eyes: "Forget it, then I'll reluctantly accept this beast as my younger brother for Xiao Mo's sake." After saying that, he stepped on the little golden lion's forehead with his two claws twice.

This guy, He Mo laughed and shook his head, and took out the resources he had prepared for the little golden lion. Now the little golden lion absorbed the energy of the obsidian and entered the evolutionary state. These resources can help the little golden lion complete the evolution better and faster. Otherwise, if it only relied on itself to absorb the energy in the air, it was unknown how long it would take to evolve successfully.

After taking care of the little golden lion's matter, He Mo felt relieved. The prepared resources should be enough for it to use at this stage.

"Hei Yao, stay here for a while. I'm going out to take care of something." He Mo instructed before leaving. He wanted to go to Captain Wang to find out about Qiu Jing's situation and check the surveillance records of that day. Perhaps he could find some clues that Qiu Jing was under control.

"Go ahead." Hei Yao tilted his head, his eyes rolling around.

"Don't cause trouble, understand?" He Mo obviously knew Hei Yao's temperament very well. He warned him before going out and watched Hei Yao nod obediently before going to Captain Wang.

However, would Hei Yao really be so obedient? !

Of course not!

As soon as He Mo left, Hei Yao spread his wings and flew up. Xiao Mo said this was where he worked, but what was work?! Hei Yao tilted his head and thought about it. Xiao Mo said that the most powerful beast in the world existed in this area. Of course, Hei Yao had to go and see the power of the most powerful beast in the world, otherwise, wouldn't his trip to this world be in vain?

Pushing the window open with his sharp beak, Hei Yao flew out sideways nimbly. He had to act quickly and not let Xiao Mo know that he had sneaked out.

I don't know if Hei Yao will listen to him and stay in the room obediently. According to his personality, he will most likely sneak out when he is out. I hope he won't cause any trouble. However, Hei Yao's strength is almost invincible in this world. There is no need to worry about any strange beasts bullying him. I just hope that other strange beasts will not provoke Hei Yao for no reason and get beaten up.

He Mo was thinking as he walked towards Captain Wang's office. It can only be said that after spending hundreds of years together, Xiao Mo understood Hei Yao's temperament very well. Captain Wang's office was at the end of the corridor. He Mo had just walked halfway when a soft yellow ball hugged his thigh.

He Mo looked down and saw that it was a floating beast.

The little guy opened his big round eyes, and his elastic body stretched lightly in the air. Somehow, the little guy's eyes were a little red. When he saw He Mo, transparent tears quickly gathered in his red eyes.

Who bullied Plankton? Why did he cry in grievance when he saw him?

He Mo held the floating beast in his arms and comforted it softly: "What's wrong with the little guy?"

The floating beast leaned its round head in He Mo's arms, feeling extremely aggrieved. Why did the human who often coaxed it disappear? The human who made delicious food for it also disappeared. It was so sad. Its master went on a mission, and it was a lonely beast with no one to accompany it.

The more Plankton thought about it, the sadder he became. His two big eyes instantly filled with tears and He Mo's chest was soaked with tears in no time.

"Be good, don't cry. I'll make you something delicious later, okay?" Holding Plankton, He Mo gently wiped away the tears on the little guy's face. Could it be that the little guy was sad because of Qiu Jing's sudden disappearance? After all, Qiu Jing has always been Plankton's attending physician, and Qiu Jing has been with it since the little guy joined the medical team.

Qiu Jing treats exotic animals very gently. Although she is usually a bit careless, once the target becomes an exotic animal, she becomes like a different person, patient and meticulous. The plankton is more sensitive in character, so it is understandable that she would be sad when the attending physician suddenly disappeared.

I just hope that Qiu Jing's behavior is really controlled by the forces in the dark. He Mo sighed silently and touched the floating beast soothingly.

The plankton sobbed and looked at the human in front of it with hope in its little eyes. Will this human make something delicious for it?

"Wait a moment, I'll take you back to the ward." He Mo saw the ward door was wide open and knew that it was the plankton that sneaked out. After Qiu Jing disappeared, he didn't know which doctor the little guy was assigned to. The medical team was short-staffed and definitely couldn't watch the little guy for a long time. He Mo took the plankton back to the ward and watched it float in the air. He said in a somewhat stern tone: "Wait for it obediently. I'm going to make something delicious. Don't run around, okay?"

Plankton nodded obediently and rubbed He Mo's cheek gently. The soft and elastic touch felt really good.

He Mo temporarily stopped looking for Captain Wang and decided to take care of the little plankton first. The little guy loves sweets the most, and a cup of sweet drink topped with some sweet fruits can satisfy the little guy.

The kitchen was borrowed from the cafeteria. It had everything that a cafeteria should have. It didn't take He Mo much time to make a sweet and delicious drink.

Holding the tray of drinks, He Mo's hand suddenly paused. He remembered that the dish Qiu Jing cooked that day was very special, not an ordinary dish. According to his five senses that were superior to ordinary people, if the dish was poisonous, he would definitely notice it. But he did not find that the dish was poisonous, which meant that the dish was indeed non-toxic. But since the dish was non-toxic, why did he fall into a coma? His physical fitness at that time was far superior to that of ordinary people. There was only one explanation, that is, the dish he ate that day was incompatible with his, and the conflict between the two would produce severe paralysis, which led to his coma.

Perhaps he could first check the vegetables that Qiu Jing used that day. Generally, all kinds of dishes in the Fifth Legion are provided by the canteen. He can go to the canteen to inquire about the sources of those dishes and who they passed through. Perhaps in this way he can find the mastermind behind the scenes.

Thinking of this, He Mo simply postponed his plan to find Captain Wang to check the surveillance. He could start with the cafeteria first.

After calming the floating beast, He Mo returned to the kitchen again.

The person in charge of the Fifth Legion's canteen is called Lao Pan, a fat uncle in his forties or fifties, who always has a smile on his face. Although the food in the canteen is not very good, the portions are very generous and the ingredients are the freshest. It is said that Lao Pan's son is also in the Fifth Legion and his rank is not low, but He Mo rarely knows about these things, so he still doesn't know who Lao Pan's son is.

Old Pan was a very friendly person. When he heard the purpose of He Mo's visit, he immediately agreed to take him to check the records.

The canteen's purchase records for the day are all recorded in a special optical computer, with each item being very clear and concise.

He Mo quickly scrolled to the day when he fell into a coma. There was no abnormal record. They were all very common ingredients. Could it be that his suspicion was wrong? He Mo paused. No, maybe it was not necessarily brought in that day, but the day before.

He Mo quickly looked through the records from the previous day, but still couldn't find anything. He looked through the records from several days ago, but still couldn't find any unusual ingredients.

He frowned in confusion. Didn't Qiu Jing buy the ingredients in the cafeteria? Then how did she get them? Did someone from that powerful faction secretly give them to her?

However, the Fifth Legion has very strict inspections on comings and goings. If he did not have some extraordinary abilities, he would not have been able to escape the Fifth Legion's detection and find the elixir. If this force really has a way to enter and exit freely, then its influence in the Fifth Legion must have formed a certain scale.

Seeing He Mo staring at the computer without blinking for a long time without moving, Lao Pan scratched his head, a little puzzled: "What's wrong, Doctor He, is there something wrong?"

"Uncle Pan, I'd like to ask, are these records on the computer all the ingredients purchased that day?"

"Yeah." Old Pan looked at the laptop and said, "What's wrong? Is there any problem? The ingredients we buy in our cafeteria are all the freshest. Don't worry."

"No, I just want to ask if it would be recorded on the light computer if someone asked the cafeteria staff to help buy some ingredients?" He Mo turned off the light computer. It seemed that no information could be found on this record. He still had to go to Captain Wang to check the surveillance.

"Oh." Old Pan suddenly realized: "This must be recorded here. All the purchase information is recorded here. We won't miss anything. Every single purchase is recorded clearly."

"Oh, right." Old Pan reached out and took another computer, opened it, and said, "If you don't believe me, you can look here. It's in our cafeteria. Besides the information recorded here, I'll also make another copy on this computer. You can compare it."

Yes, since the mastermind can transport him out and exile him into space, he will definitely not miss such a small matter as deleting the purchase records. I wonder if there is any mastermind who has escaped from the forces behind the scenes in this optical computer that copies information.

"Thank you, Uncle Pan." He Mo took the laptop and flipped directly to those days, comparing them one by one.

Fortunately, he usually has the habit of doing accounting and likes to make a copy of the day's data, otherwise he would not be able to avoid today's random inspection. Old Pan wiped the cold sweat from his face. He had heard from his son a long time ago that this Doctor He was General Zhong Qing's fiancé, and he must have come to check the accounts unexpectedly today, or he was smart enough to copy the data. Old Pan patted his round belly with some pride.

Sure enough, He Mo discovered the problem after the comparison. Several uncommon plant names appeared on Lao Pan’s personal computer.

He Mo remembered these names clearly: Stone Fairy Flower, Hundred Grass Root, and Luojiang Water.

He doesn't know much about plants, especially these unconventional plants, so he needs to check to see if the problem lies with these unfamiliar ingredients.

He Mo noticed that these unfamiliar ingredients were bought by a man named Shi Ke. After returning the computer to Lao Pan, He Mo inadvertently inquired about Shi Ke's information.

This person is in charge of purchasing for the canteen and has been in the Fifth Legion for almost five years. He is usually careful and diligent in his work. The vegetables he buys are good and fresh. He is responsible and serious in his work. Generally speaking, in Lao Pan's impression, Shi Ke is a very good person.

After sincerely thanking Lao Pan, He Mo left the cafeteria. If it weren't for Lao Pan's good habit, he really wouldn't have been able to find the evidence.
